Maternity Session
Bay Area Maternity Photography Portfolio
A calm, joy-filled experience that captures your radiant glow and the love growing all around you
Every pregnancy tells a story. I am here to help you remember it.
My maternity sessions are calm and natural. I’ll guide you with care so you feel beautiful, confident, and fully present. You do not need to show up as anything other than yourself.
You deserve more than just pretty photos. You deserve to feel seen. You deserve to feel loved and celebrated.
These portraits are about more than how you look. They are about how this season feels in your body, in your home, and in your growing family.

Maternity photography is about more than photos.
It is about honoring your journey and celebrating the love that is already here. These sessions capture joy, anticipation, and connection — the moments you will want to remember forever.
I am here to celebrate your growing family with portraits that feel real, timeless, and filled with emotion.
Why Maternity Photography Matters?
You can expect:
- Gentle guidance that feels natural
- Portraits that reflect your love and connection
- A relaxed process from start to finish
Most families book between 30 and 35 weeks, when your belly is beautifully round and you still feel comfortable moving with ease. However every pregnancy is different and I am happy to photograph you any time during your second or third trimester.
